True that.

Just more talk and unfounded facts.

tell us how it is then Steve,because of course I would have no personal knowledge of operating a truck with 1.3 million miles on it......oh wait I do :roll:

You're leased to a company, so your experience doesn't count. :lol:

Unless your name is on the door, you don't know S**t.

Would someone tell the IRS that I am a leased operator and I can't make that much. :lol: :lol:

In that case, ignorance is bliss. :lol:

Just remember the mantra of the independent hobby trucker:

If your (sic) not running, your (sic) not making any money.

Well, I guess I better plan to be out of business in what, 10 years or so? You guys are like a bunch of little munchkins nipping at my heals. You've tried ever approach so far to tell me I'm going to fail. Lets see, what next. I need to be putting away $.85 cents per mile for asteroid protection coverage which insurance does not cover and if I don't, well, you'll fail Steve.

If you guys spent half the energy actually working instead of trying to drag people down you might make as much as me. I don't mind, I kind of like it, just makes me feel even better. Sort of like IN YOUR FACE!!! lol
Still waiting on that IFTA worksheet Rev. Guess I won that round. Your not doing so well, time to change tactics...... :lol:

Loaded up with steel the other day and once again it was typical for a flatbed driver. Show up at 7am and riggers show up late at 9am. I call the broker for my next load and now my appointment at 12 has to be pushed out to 4pm. I get unloaded and just as they are pulling away from my truck with the last piece the forklift breaks. The steering shaft broke. So they next guy to get unloaded is screwed for the day.

I make it to the customer site around 1 and don't start to load until 5. You have to wear everything at this place. Your hard hat, steel toed shoes, long sleeve shirt and they give you special things that go around your arms to protect you from getting cut. You also have to wear special heavy gloves they give you. On top of all that you have to wear a harness and be hooked up. THIS ALL SUCKS BIG TIME!

The load is a perfect square 6' tall and also perfect for tarping but being on that harness makes it 10 times harder. The dock is made for 110" flatbed with just enough room on either side. After they load 3' you have to pull out and belly strap because you can't get to your winches. Then pull in and load the rest then pull out to strap again. Then pull in to put the tarp on then you can pull out and do whatever you want except get back on the top of the load.

So, what you thought was going to be an easy day of unload at 7am and get loaded by noon turns out to be one of your longest days instead.

I'm in NY and should be unloading at 7am this morning then 15 minutes to home. Spend the night and hope to get a load back out on Thursday or Friday.

I'm loaded with around 47,500 and a perfect square and tarped load and it pulls like 10,000. It's a huge difference with a load that doesn't catch the air.

I haven't seen anyone saying you're going to fail....

I thought you were losing money. That's what you said the other day.....

Besides, I sure hope I'm not making "as much as you". I'd rather keep my $2.25 per mile that I've been averaging for the month instead. :lol:

Since you didn't provide it, I'm the one still waiting. Besides, the consensus has already ruled against you.

Nope. You're still the king of obfuscation.

i know i've come to this party a little late, but don't you live in new hampshire? :?

Sorry to dissapoint you Rev, not losing money. The extra money left over a week AFTER all my truck and personal bills were paid dropped from about $1,200 to $800 because I was taking too much time off. With my new plan of running and taking 8 days off a month I should have about $1,400 left over a week. So.....HA!

And yes, Vavega, I live in Merrimack New Hampshire.
